Azure Redis Connection Issue

Question

I am trying to access my live Azure Redis Cache Instance inside Visual Studio for locally debugging, I am using StackExchange.Redis but I am getting this error whenever i try to access my cache value

StackExchange.Redis.RedisConnectionException: No connection is available to service this operation: GET 100014; UnableToConnect on cache.redis.cache.windows.net:6380/Interactive, Initializing/NotStarted

I have enabled Non SSL on my Redis cache on port 6379 as well, I have tried running my WebApi Locally with SSL as well (Enabled in Visual Studio). The weird part is I am able to connect to same Redis instance using Console application but not with my .Net Core Web APi Project.

private static Lazy<ConnectionMultiplexer> lazyConnection = new Lazy<ConnectionMultiplexer>(() =>
    {
        string cacheConnection = "key";
        return ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect(cacheConnection);
    });

    public static ConnectionMultiplexer Connection
    {
        get
        {
            return lazyConnection.Value;
        }
    }

More weird part is I am able to connect to same Redis instance using Redis Cli.

Your connection code looks fine, I believe your issue might be the cache connection you are using as you are only passing on the key, but it should look something like this:

string cacheConnection = host:port,password=YOUR_KEY,ssl=True,abortConnect=False

in your case set the ssl to false if you wish and the port accordingly

What version of .Net core and what version of the StackExchange.Redis library are you using at the moment? – Armando Bracho Jun 26 '19 at 11:25
